His comment:


Pyro John Watkins
Well, I guess my secrets are out now! It seems my foray into my seventh decade was not exactly how I envisioned it would be. I approached this milestone with such enthusiastic and optimistic plans for a whole new exciting chapter in my life as author, and such ambitious plans they were. With help from some very good friends we were going to throw a huge party combining my 70th birthday in April with a book release at a major rock club with some of my musician friends playing and hopefully garnering some interest and excitement for the book. Well, you know what they say about plans.
It started in October with my best buddy for the past dozen years, my faithful canine companion Brother Dog passing away after a long illness. I kept him comfortable and pampered him through his last days and then carved his stone myself and buried him under his favorite tree.
Then in December some Korean hackers got into my Social Security and cleaned me out. By the time I found out all of my accounts like electricity were in arrears/ This was insured money and Social Security said I would be reimbursed. They lied and by the time I found out about it I was really in trouble.
Mind you they knew who the hackers are, this as an old scam that has gone on for years through GOOGLE play, but they decided I was somehow in cahoots with these people and did not have to pay me.
This was when the clutch on my motorcycle went out and my phone had been cut off so I had to take the bus to battle Social Security.
Long story short (I know...too late) all the wonderful plans went straight to hell when I suddenly diapered off the face of the earth. (I know...boo Hoo!)!
Then my new only three year old air conditioner went out. Yes it was under warranty but not the labor to diagnose the problem thus began my learning air on YOU TUBE! (same place I was learning motorcycle repair)
Making progress the water main to my house under the city sidewalk that when reported the city decided this took was my fault and I wa issued a demand for repair that when I looked into it included getting permits and a bond to go into their sidewalk for my leak!
They say you can’t teach al old dog new tricks well in the last year I have learned how to cut stone, investigate sophisticated international computer fraud. Replace a clutch and carburetor on a motorcycle, Hire lawyers to fight the government with no retainer, diagnose an air conditioner, and repair leak under concrete and the sad part is that I was better at these tasks than the people who’s job it was to do it in the first place, we are doomed!
I have been in tough spots before, tougher than this, hell... I did five tours with Bobby Brown and another six under the umbrella of Wendy Dio’s keen management, I was a roadie when hat meant something, I blew hit up, a little heat wave and some idiot bureaucrats aren't shit.
I truth is I had everything I needed, The love of a good woman who understands me and believes in me, that and some industrial sized jars of peanut butter and i managed to still persevere with a smile.
I did not tell anyone what was going on because my friends would have wanted to help. Or even worse to feel sorry for me. Fuck that, I have always taken care of myself and with a little more time I would climb out of this hole. Then came my do-gooder neighbor who called a television show of more do-gooders who came knocking on my door, and it really was a surprise. And now my face is all over the place as the poster child for poor little old men who needs pity and charity.
The only thing these incompetent jerks took from me of any value is time which is now a limited resource so now instead of spending my days in survival mode and mentally jousting with nincompoops I can get back up, dust myself off, and start over wasting my time writing my books. I have learned to be more grateful for my Victoria and my friends, and nosey neighbors, and the people who enjoy my stories, and time. I got a new dog this week so the house is not only cool, it feels like a home.
And don’t be fooled by the image of that grey haired old man on television. They shot over an hour of tape to get those three minutes and I can guarantee the stuff on the cutting room floor will never see the light of day like when I asked the producers should I look pathetic or just feeble for the cameras or got more excited over the red ribbon filler in my prize box than the check or some other comments to the hostess when she asked if there was anything else I needed which all goes to show that I may not be a pussy but I am still asshole because these people probably saved my life who should probably just say thank you and shut the fuck up. I love you Vicky, happy early three year anniversary!

if you're 70, then you're entering your 8th decade.

[BernieTaupson]

What a fucking weirdo.

[Tommy]

No idea who this guy is, but I can't be the only one who knows you have to knock out the electric bill every month, right?

[BernieTaupson]

Who the hell is the wife, a Nigerian scammer?

[LurkingAtWork]

Dumb as a box of rocks.

[HueyRamone]

Who the hell is the wife, a Nigerian scammer?

He says Korean scammers got all his money, but it cant be coincidence that he was scammed out of all his money AND has a hot Ukrainian girlfriend who he's never met, no?

And decorating the exterior of your house in VH stripes is..... I dont even know what to say.

[cowpins]

Did I miss where he got outed?

[Tommy]

Did I miss where he got outed?

Who is this person?

[NeonKnite]

Did I miss where he got outed?

The news outed him that he's down on his luck and he still comes up with a story that makes no sense and is still perpetuating the girlfriend story.

For crying out loud, the guy looks like he doesn't even bathe regularly but we're supposed to believe that he and a younger, attractive blonde woman from Russian/Ukraine are madly in love with each other?

Conveniently, any time she attempts to travel to the US, something comes up or prevents it from happening.

And yea, it's just coincidence that he was "hacked" out of all of his money, but of course it has nothing to do with his imaginary girlfriend.

Um...outing would have been, "The news outed him that he's down on his luck and showed proof that his girlfriend is fake".

His long post trying to explain everything away and blame "korean hackers" says otherwise.

[El Vampiro Blanco]

And he's still posting photoshops of him and the 'girlfriend'.

[HueyRamone]

"Look what I made, sweetheart. We're apart now, but with the power of Microsoft Paint, i've put us together!"

"Oh, my darling, zat is so vonderful! I hav to tell you, I haf new problems here with visa, can you please go to Vestern Union today and send money?"

[keyofgee]

There has to be some computer nerd that can find out that she is a fraud in 5 minutes…prolly break his heart but it needs to be done. I know someone close personally that is an elderly gentleman and alone and it just happened to him. He was bilked out of many tens of thousands of dollars. The people that prey on people like that are scum…

[parasite74]

He is truly pathetic.

, this as an old scam that has gone on for years through GOOGLE play, but they decided I was somehow in cahoots with these people and did not have to pay me.

Yeah, they found out you voluntarily bought Google Play cards and sent them out, and are continuing to do so. Probably why they dont have to pay you.

[grishnak boss]

Is he eating dogs & cats too?

[Danzig in the Dark]

Has he ever worked with Enuff Znuff/Donnie Vie?

No, it just explains that he's still a kook....doesn't out him on anything. Outed is a verb that is factual evidence to "out" someone. For example, " John shared that he was hacked by Koren hackers, however, channel 6 news confirmed that John was actually fooled by a Russian teenager claiming to be a Ukrainian women". See the difference?

[killdrum]

I read all his tour blogs. He experienced some truly cool things back in the day that were absolutely legit. He also did an excessive amount of drugs. Somewhere along the way(old age/brain damage) he fucking lost it. Had a breakdown when he lost his AC and posted some weird shit. Fast forward to the fictional or grifter person. Was sad to see him get worked or fall deep in senility or whatever he's stricken with. At least he did some cool shit back in the day. Complete mess now.

It make not work like that for regular bums like you & me, but rules are just different for rockstars and legendz like PyroJohn™.

Believe me, you too can have a beautiful girlfriend in a 3rd world country as long as you send Western Union on the regular.....And yes, she will pretend to be madly in love with you.

You're assuming the person running the grift is a "she"...

You're right, maybe he's stupid enough to not insist on video calls.....
The whole story is stupid. He keeps trying to get her to fly to the US which even if the girl and the relationship was real is very hard to achieve with visas.
All the while he could get on a plane and visit her there today if he wanted to.....

Even with video calls, how difficult is it to pay someone to call a guy in a different country? I know that this is considered a job and there are "agencies" with paid female employees in some countries - Russia, Ukraine, Thailand were mentioned in an article in a serious newspaper some years ago. In another there was an article about a guy who bought a flight to Stockholm for his Kazakh girlfriend whom he had video and voice chatted to. They went with him to the airport with the intention to write a happy story about finding love and not only did she not show up, there were four other men waiting for the same woman there. When the guy got home, he found that someone had paid for a name and date change on the ticket he bought.... let's say the angle of the newspaper story changed a bit.
